Calzaghe would of gotten so much stick if he called out a retired 37 year old, so why is Froch different?
I see this all the time from fans of Joe , and I'm amazed how many ppl they dismiss as "not worthy" but some how Manfredo Jr, Ashira, Pudwill, Salem, Thornberry were :huh
Different stage of a career though, no? Calzaghe reached top three P4P before retirement. Why would he take on Carl Froch who struggled against a blown up middleweight for 11 rounds? I'm taking nothing away from Froch's win, it was brilliant. But the overreaction since has really done my nut in!
[YT][/YT] Maybe closer to his prime but no where near the class of either fighter so it means nothing.
Never been a fan of Joes,allways thought his skills were VERY overated and that he was awfull to watch most of the time,that said this fight would just be a repeat of the Jeff Lacy drubbing.Ive no interest in it.
Manfredo Jr and Ashira were either side of the Lacy fight and he had been a belt holder for 10 years.... what stage of his carrer does he need to be in
because at the end of ther day he's a human being and reacted how any of us would to someone constantly using him to promote themselves, it's just verbal self defence man
